My wife has accused me of liking animals more so than people. If this is true, the reason is that I see the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals commercials and we have gotten two cats from the SPCA shelter in Aiken, which has many pets for adoption.

On Thursday, April 17, the Lancaster County Democratic Party had a special guest at its meeting in downtown Lancaster. Fort Mill Councilman Tom Adams spoke to the group about the upcoming congressional race.

Adams, 55, is the Democratic nominee for the U.S. House of Representatives in the 5th Congressional District in South Carolina. He will be facing incumbent Mick Mulvaney. A longtime member of First Baptist Church in Fort Mill, Adams has served on the town council for six years.

Phil Noble’s article, “A scorned S.C. hero,” on April 18, is an article with a lot of information missing. This scorned hero, federal Judge Julius Waites Waring, he wrote about was a longtime Democrat, who actually became a Republican in his ideology and actions.
